Tearing Tester

Paper Textile Film 

The Elmendorf tearing tester is used to determine the tearing strength of fabrics, paper, plastics films, non-woven and other sheet materials.
The test method consists of raising the pendulum up to the starting position of the test, getting the required potential energy. Then, then pendulum is release, tearing the specimen and we will obtain the tearing strength by means of the reduction of the energy due to the tearing of the sample.
The instrument works standalone via a touch screen, and can be connected to the SmarTexLab app via WiFi to set parameters, monitor test status, receive reminders about the instrument or accessories and share test results with one click.
